Starr Daily traces sickness of body and soul to guilt held silently. He tells how an imprisoned ex-minister was healed the night he could at last forgive himself. He also recalls kneeling five hours on chapel flagstones beside a student who would not forgive her mother’s killer, in a talk to the 1961 Delaware CFO.
Starr Daily lays out the kingdom as the foursquare city of Revelation with three gates on each side, naming twelve of them from study and discipline through work and worship to law, love, light and life. Recorded at the 1961 Delaware CFO.
At the Delaware CFO in 1961, Geraldine Conway compares her own weed-choked garden to the parable of the sower. She warns that “the care of the world and the deceitfulness of riches” can choke a life before it ever bears fruit.
On the opening night of the Delaware CFO in 1961, Starr Daily urges campers to work the whole program. The fruits of the Spirit must be won by participation, he says, while the gifts come only by grace. He warns that “all negativity is vibration,” and he points out that nature draws no straight lines, because everything alive is curve and rhythm.
Geraldine Conway pictures Christians as a walled garden. She once saw such a garden in Texas, an artist’s showpiece shut up so completely that no one could ever see inside. Let down the barriers that keep the fragrance of Christ from a watching world, she urges the 1961 Delaware CFO.
Geraldine Conway describes washing the feet of a dying, soot-covered woman in a lantern-lit shanty. That act, she tells the Delaware CFO in 1961, taught her that serving Christ could be “a pleasure and a joy and a sacrament.”
